The entry for "Yado bakol" at http://www.learnhebrew.org.il/print/2010/july5.htm is strangely ironic. It claims that the etymology comes from Genesis 16:12 which (it asserts) was a "definitely negative" meaning. Then it goes on to say that "in recent years it has turned semi-positive". Alas, what did the Genesis original communicate to Hagar!
